ahh normal service resumed. though i have to say that it kinda sucks to be raining all the time, especially since its hazerain i.e. my car is worse for wear each time it pours. as long as it doesnt rain on soccer-day its tolerable though. to think rain used to be one of my favourite weather types in hot sunny singapore.. think i actually like the sun. i'd rather be hot than cold anyday.
[edit] didnt want to make a new post just for this bit... but i just found out that Stardust by neil gaiman has been made into a film! its already in post-production haha i can't wait! its a MUST watch film! and it has claire danes robert de niro sienna miller michelle pfeiffer and some up and coming british star charlie cox heh. its one of my favourite novels and will definitely make a good movie; neil gaiman won't allow his work to be hollywood-ed till it loses its magic. so when it comes out next year, be sure to catch it. i know i will.
in honesty its been awhile since we had reason left to smile hello sunshine... come into my life.

They have the power to work together. You have the power to get them to take action.
Together, we can destroy the commercial viability of Internet child abuse sites that are destroying the lives of innocent children. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go light a candle =)

just what do you have to do to get a little inspiration around here. im just sitting here listening to christina belting out 'ain't no other man' and sipping water from my stanford pint glass, and words fail me. well not really fail me, more like there's nothing really interesting to blog about. or rather my life is dead boring. save me, all my adoring fans out there! say something interesting on my tagboard cbox.. give this blog life!
haha ok enough prostituting of my blog. its october now! the month before the month before christmas.. its still kinda early but i think i heard christmas music the other day. either that or it could have been on some movie/tv show.. haha. still gets you in the mood i guess. every year is the same old story.. all the hype around christmas and on the day itself it just falls flat. i used to have real fun at christmas as a kid.. and its not just about the presents. its about all the fellowship, its about that big shining star in the sky, its about Jesus. but lately it hasnt been and i wonder if it'll ever be again. *sigh*
im just wandering through the wilderness now.

you know what? im a new person from today on. no more, indecisive, unassertive, wishy-washy me. i mean, these traits might rear their ugly head from time to time, but i'll just override them. its a new me.
it is, because i say it is.
trust me.
i wish i could trust myself when i say that.

check this out.
isnt that a beautiful comet? nearing the end of the month it will be at its closest to earth, and at this point in time its already visible in the night sky with the use of binoculars..
BUT.
seeing as our sky looks like this in the day.. and even worse in the night (PSI is at 150 now yay). so much for that. 3 cheers for indonesian forest fires!
blah. not like we have a nice night sky here in cloudy ol' singapore anyway.
double blah.

an update for updates' sake. but thats what it always starts out as.. lets just see where it leads this time.
clearing leave isnt all its made out to be. sure its shiok to be out of camp and sleeping in your own bed, waking up at your own hours, leading your own life. but at the same time the threat of recall looms over you, and you know your'e just like a dog on a longer leash. and inertia is really pulling me down now.. just feel so lethargic some days. woof.
its funny the way things work. you have all these plans, all these things that you tell yourself your'e going to do once your'e free. and yet when the opportunities present themselves, more often than not we're inclined to pass it over. its only when its too late that we start to move.. and knowing this doesnt help either. *sigh* just need to get off my ass!
which is why tomorrow will be a good day. gonna find myself a new phone (sony w850i by the looks of it) and play soccer too (hopefully with a new nike ball heh). and we'll see where it goes from there. i really should be going for fellowship.. but i just cant bring myself to go. as it is i'm already thinking of finding some alternative, to catch a movie or grab coffee somewhere. will only know tomorrow.
just wish that tomorrow would come sooner. thats all i do.
waiting for tomorrow.
